Analyze dataThe PA1000 features harmonics analysis to the 50th order as a standardfeature. Harmonics, THD, and related measurements can all be analyzedsimultaneously with other power parameters.

The PA1000's free PWRVIEW software enables:

Viewing measurement data and system uncertainty in real-time,including waveforms, trend plots, and more.

Creating and applying limits you define for simplified pass/fail testing ofany parameter, including those based on user-defined math functions.

Automating instrument setup, data collection, and report generation forkey applications with just a few clicks using wizard-driven interfaces.

Communicating with multiple PA1000 instruments for calculation ofpower efficiency and other parameters.

IEC 61000-3-2 / 4-7 Current harmonics, pre-compliance testing.

IEC 62301 / EN 50564 Standby power, full-compliance testing.

IEC 61000-3-2 current harmonic testing

IEC 62301 Standby power test with real time uncertainty and stability measurements

Document resultsPWRVIEW software can automatically generate formatted test reports forIEC 61000-3-2 and 4-7 harmonics (pre-compliance) or IEC 62301 standbypower (full compliance). These test reports include pass/fail results, datatables, graphs, and more… everything necessary to prove designperformance and ensure a successful result in the compliance test lab.

Notes:

All stated accuracies are based upon a minimum of a 30-minute warm-up period.

Zext is the external shunt impedance used and must be less than or equal to 10 Ohms.

If no frequency is measured, then the signal is considered DC for the purpose of accuracy.

F is the frequency measured in kHz. In the case of harmonics, F is the harmonic frequency.

Specifications are valid from 1 to 100% of range in low bandwidth and after a manual zero has been performed. Values below 1% are typical.

In high bandwidth, specifications are valid when the signal is greater than 10% of the range.

Harmonic specifications are always valid when the harmonic is greater than 2% of the range.

Measurement conditions during calibration: Instrument default settings unless otherwise stated, sine waves applied to V and I inputs, 30 min warm up, ambient temperature23 °C ±5 °C.
